5 0

Answer:

  • 200

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Total certificates = 500
  • Math = m
  • Science = s

<u>Equations </u>

  • m+s = 500  ⇒ s = 500 - m

<u>Girls who won certificates:</u>

  • 2/3m = 50 + 3/2*1/2s
  • 2/3m = 50 + 3/4s

<u>Multiply both sides by 12 to clear fractions</u>

  • 8m = 600 + 9s

<u>Substitute s</u>

  • 8m = 600 + 9(500 - m)
  • 8m = 600 + 4500 - 9m
  • 17m = 5100
  • m = 5100/17
  • m =300

<u>Girls who won math:</u>

  • 2/3*300 = 200

Lines e and f are parallel. The mAngle9 = 80° and mAngle5 = 55°. Parallel lines e and f are cut by transversal c and d. All angl
loris [4]

Answer:

The angle measures that are correct are m<2 = 125degrees, m<8 = 55 degrees and m<14 = 100 degrees

Given the following angles from the diagram;

m<5 = 55 degrees

m<9 = 80degrees

From the diagram

m<5 = m<1 = 55 degrees (corresponding angle)

m<1 + m<2 = 180 (sum of angle on a straight line)

Hence;

55 + m<2 = 180

m<2 = 180 - 55

m<2 = 125degrees

Also;

m<5 = m<8 = 55 degrees (vertically opposite angle)

m<9 = m<13 = 80degrees

m<13 + m<14 = 180

Hence;

80 + m<14 = 180

m<14 = 180 - 80

m<14 = 100 degrees

Hence the angle measures that are correct are m<2 = 125degrees, m<8 = 55 degrees and m<14 = 100 degrees
